    The Gaming Industry At This Moment

    I can't buy a game that has loot boxes for anything other than cosmetics. I think the idea of having random cosmetic loot drops can add a simple yet fun (when you finally get that outfit for your favorite Overwatch character for example) addition to many games ... but as soon as they turn into...

    Overwatch Golden Loot Box Giveaway!

    Oh man oh man! City of Heroes!! I always made some dark villain like character who eventually turned good. Hell ... some of us got so into it we even wrote up bio's and such for our characters. Now that's something I forgot about and not sure I should be sharing. Haha. Favorite Blizzard game...

    Do you even lift?

    Haha. Thanks man. I'm just a fat guy in denial nowadays.

    Do you even lift?

    Thanks everyone! Appreciate the love. @Jonathan_Leack Yes! A caloric surplus for adding size is a must. Depending on where you are body wise, it could be as little as 250 calories or as much as 500, sometimes even 700 or so. It really all depends on what you're looking to do, although I don't...

    Do you even lift?

    Not sure if I'm posting this right, but the pics of me being heavier are from 2011-2012 and the other one is this past March. I've bulked up a bit more and not as lean currently (what can I say, I went on a 2 week freebee binge outside of my macro counts .. haha) but I'm looking forward to...

    Do you even lift?

    Yessir! I took up weightlifting a few months after my separation back in 2012. I used to hit up the gym all the time before I met my ex wife (I was about 240 lbs when I was 18, got to 195 lbs by 20) but lost it after having a few kids and well, letting myself go. At one point I was 297 lbs and...

    Ads / Pop-ups

    Admittedly I've been avoiding coming to GR for quite a while because of the ads, which is a sad thing to say. Even now, I tried logging in to reply to this and two times ads popped up and messed with me trying to sign in. It's frustrating. As I miss viewing the content and seeing old school...

    Ads / Pop-ups

    Can I ask when and why ads became so horrid on GR? As a long time user of the site (and quite literally my only real source for trusted reviews since I was in high school) it's honestly starting to kill coming here. I go from "I wonder what's new in the gaming world" to "why do I keep coming...

    PlayStation Vita

    The 3D aspect doesn't really jive with me, I'm guessing Nintendo has a better game selection though?

    PlayStation Vita

    How goes it GR crew? Been a while! I have a quick and simple question. Is the PlayStation Vita worth the purchase? With summer coming up I have no time to justify buying the new consoles, I'll just be on the move far too much. Which has me thinking handheld until the fall, haven't owned one...

    F*** jobs, f*** rent, f*** being an adult

    In addition, I just want to say it does get better with hard work and dedication. I've gone through a lot in the almost 2 years since separated / divorced and I'm much better individually as ever before. Is it perfect and flawless? Nope. Rarely is, but that's life.

    F*** jobs, f*** rent, f*** being an adult

    No doubt life can get down and dirty at times, but figuring out what you can control and dropping the rest really does make a difference. Accepting the fact that you've placed yourself in this situation is a hard pill to swallow, being okay with it taking time and hard work to get out of is even...

    Dark Souls

    I will have to give it a solid sit down when I don't have the kids, so I can really get into it. I enjoy the game play and the difficulty is refreshing. Played a few other games recently that I enjoyed the stories in; Uncharted 3, Tomb Raider and The Last of Us but this combat is great fun...

    Dark Souls

    Hey Ugh! Things are moving along in life, still getting a divorce but enjoying 50 / 50 custody of my kiddos in a new place I moved into 4 weeks ago. Changed positions at work a few times until I found something I can see myself working in for the foreseeable future and dropped 70 lbs, bulked...

    Dark Souls

    Buddy let me borrow his 360 and I picked it up, been messing around and trying a few different classes. Started out as a thief, then went to warrior and now trying out the cleric. Not sure which one I want to do, lol.
